Daddy Teddy Bear

Daddy Teddy Bear

This is‘Daddy Teddy’ and he has been my bear for the last 47 years. When I was two years old my mother was having another baby (my little brother) at home. So when she went into labour, she sent me to sleep over at my Nan’s house who lived nearby. My Nan gave me this bear to sleep with to keep me calm and I can still remember it lying next to me. When it came time to go home in the morning, I started crying because I wanted my new bear with me and so my Nan let me keep him.


Many years later when my I was having a fight with my brother in our bedroom, my little brother threw Daddy Teddy at me. I ducked out of the way but the teddies hard plastic nose hit our bedroom window and smashed it!

Ted
by: Maria

I have a bear that looks just like this one. I was given him for chrismas 1961,that makes him 60 years old, he has been well loved by myself, my children and my grandchildren, in fact you can see teeth marks on his hard nose from teething. Will never part with him,he sits on a chair in a bedroom and there he will remain. I would be interested in finding out more about him.

my bear
by: julie

I have a very similar bear named deano. My nan and granfer gave him to me as a baby so he has to be at least 53. He has been with me my entire life. Sadly no eyes just coat button's and very faded lipstick. His growler still works xxx

I wonder if this is a Chiltern bear
by: kate

Looking at this bear I wonder if it could be from the hugmee range made by the Chiltern company. I think ut is the scooped paws and the fact that the eyes are close to the muzzle. I could be wrong of course.
